What is coconut oil ?
Virgin coconut oil is obtained by pressing the fresh flesh of the coconut. It is then called virgin coconut oil.
This is not to be confused with coconut oil, which is made from whole coconuts where the shells are cooked at high temperatures and treated (bleached, refined and deodorised). This is what’s known as Copra.
La Maison du Coco’s organic virgin coconut oil is cold-pressed from fresh and ripe coconuts. It is 100% natural as it is untreated, unrefined and free from additives
How to use it ?
In cooking, coconut oil supports high temperatures particularly well. It is perfect in woks, meat stir-fries or for cookingfish in the oven, for example.
It can replace fats such as butter in savoury or sweet recipes, or seasoning in a vinaigrette, for example.
Tip
Coconut oil resists well to cooking at high temperatures, especially when cooking fish in the oven. A tablespoon of coconut oil will add crispness to the skin of the fish.
